Better question is "would the son have voted for Trump?". Then laugh at him if he would have, but not until then.
As it stands, the better take is not to laugh at him, but to laugh and fully enjoy the parents' pain about the situation. Savor it.
My parents did not for him, and I will probably smear it in their face immediately if it ever directly affects them. But we're white, fully naturalized people who live in a red area, so it will probably take a while. I only voted red once, right after becoming old enough and before I started to break free if the super tight bubble they kept me in.
But they never had a clue until this election, and they were shocked.
They usually like to nitpick with me now over bits of news that they think sounds good for them or bad for me. Now after these 100 days, they haven't said a peep.
I don't bring it up much because for the time being I have to depend on them due to medical issues. But I should be ready to get back out within 2 years and I will not be quiet then.
